Well I did alot of Copy and Pasting, but.. i did have to place over half of them.. and cut them in.. So.. So, back to Star Wars for abit. Have 2 ships here, the Tie Phantom from the old Star Wars game, and the Tie Defender from star wars rebels, both the early and the final late version. Done with both ( or all 3) and all up on shapeways! (Shameless plug!)
Finished up the Cerritos. Didn't know what to do with the back of the nacelles, since its just a light, so put a round bulb in it! I'll think of something better latter. Thanks All!
So, Didn't have much time for "wip" pictures, but this is almost done, the Norway Class from First Contact! Now, used the Eaglemoss/book diagrams since.. well.. only thing out there! So this is almost done, some sizing, and a few details like phaser strips to add, but 97%! Thanks all!
Very true, Wish the first contact ships would show up on LDS or Picard, In Picard there around 30 years old so unless there was a design flaw or limited production, they should still be around.
Thanks! So next is the Frying Pan.. Err.. Freedom class from Wolf 359 Fleet. Says 430 meters, so not a small ship, but not to big either. Took some stuff from the Probert C model, Bridge area is a re fangled version, I think it looks good. Now the only thing is the Impulse deck.. No idea where it is on the model, so stuck it on the rear of the saucer. Didn't follow the Eaglemoss version.. Sometimes there okay, other times its Meh. This is a Meh, i'll do my own details My version, the bottom doohickey at the bottom of the nacelle is a hard point for pods, towing etc. .. Eh why not! thanks all!
Thanks all! So, more Wolf 359, this time the Cheyenne Class! Done this one oh a lifetime ago, but came back to do it better! ( Well, more normal looking one.. no secondary hull) So put under it a full sized Calypso Captains Yacht. Each shuttle bay is 2 decks high, top is small shuttles and the lower can accommodate 2 type 11 large shuttles, maybe 1 danube if it wears a corset.. The rim is a mixture of sensor blocks and some windows, a deflector is in the front part. Almost done, some odds and ends, and I plan to make a full shuttle bay interior.. because I like shuttle bays.. So.. more to come!
Okay, a bit of a photo dump, I kind of just do what I feel like, so, the past couple of weeks we have 1. Suliban cell ship. Great as I only had to make only 1/4 of the darn thing! he he. 2. Suliban Stealth ship, again, only had to make 1/4 of it and the copy/paste. quite a detail hog! 3. Okay, this is a WIP in the real sense. the U.S.S. Emmett Till! the Emmet Till is a WIP, the nacelles are done, i think, and the enginering is smoothed, waiting for detail, so still figuring out the Saucer and Pylons and the double neck. Really looking at the Enterprise E for inspiration. More soon!
Been working more on the Emmet Till, more done on the saucer, small bit on the Eng hull. Done a sizing, its about 740 meters, that is the saucer at about the same size as the Sovereign. I'm pretty good at taking existing stuff and making it, even improving, but sometimes making it from new is a bit of struggle.. but sometimes have good ideas. This one is a bit of that, trying to figure out crap.. taking awhile So more latter!
2 months? What have I been up to! So, I've been off and on on a number of things, and have given up for something else, but lately, have been working on the Merian class that is the USS Plank from the full circle fleet, designed by Mark Rademaker. Started this 5 years ago, but abandoned it, but now came back to it. ALOT of detail, and not even close to being done. So more coming soon!
